Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce noise to ears and to effectively listen to required information only, by providing a microphone at the outside of a headphone speaker unit and inputting a signal incident to the microphone to the speaker unit through phase inversion. CONSTITUTION:Microphones 4,4' are located outside headphone speaker units 2,2' of a headphone 1, and the output is inputted to addition amplifiers 6,6' of corresponding left and right channels via phase inversion circuits 5,5'. With such a construction, if a noise N takes place externally, a noise wave 9 is incident to a microphone 4, and a signal in phase reflection at the circuits 5,5' is formed, and it is applied to the units 2,2' together with the information from a music information supply 3 to cancel noise 8 applied to ears 8, allowing to effectively listen to required audio or music information only.
